My husband was given the best gift ever yesterday by our son.
Our son lives across the world from us – having created a life where he can live on his own terms, happy as a clam. We use a chat program almost every day plus a conference call program when we are all up and functional at the same time of the day, so we stay close.
I check the chat program every morning to see if he’s left any messages, pictures, or questions for us.
Yesterday morning I found this –
“Dad, I have a luxurious life now because you were so patient in making me strong.”
I’m still tearing up this morning. What a beautiful thing for our son to FEEL, and to SAY to his dad. We really won the lottery on sons.
That is a lovely thing to hear Linda. I can relate totally, as my daughter-in-law told me once that my son told her that his mum was the smartest person he knew. I admit that it made me wonder about how small his circle of friends was, but it was still lovely to hear it.

Hahahahahaha. LOVE your comment. Love your sense of humor, too. Your son is lucky, and I’m happy that your daughter-in-law cared enough to share that with you. Bask in the compliment, and thanks for writing. :0)
